SYSTEMS OF LINEAR EQUATIONS AND MATRICES


2.1 Solution of Linear Systems by the Your Turn 3
Echelon Method Since there are 60 utensils with a total weight of 189.6
Your Turn 1 pounds, the equations of Example 5 become
2 x + 3 y = 12 (1) x + y + z = 60 (1)
3x - 4 y = 1 ( 2) 3.9 x + 3.6 y + 3.0 z = 189.6 ( 2)
Use row transformations to eliminate x in equation (2). where x = the number of knives, y = the number of
2 x + 3 y = 12 forks, and z = the number of spoons.
3R1 + (-2) R 2  R 2 17 y = 34
x + y + z = 60
Now make the coefficient of the first term in each 3.9 R1 + ( −1) R 2 → R 2 0.3 y + 0.9 z = 44.4
equation equal to 1.

1 R2  R2 y = 2 R2 → R2 y + 3 z = 148
17 0.3
Back-substitute to solve for x.
Solve for y in terms of the parameter z: y = 148 − 3 z
3
x + (2) = 6
2 Substitute this expression into equation (1).
x+3=6
x + (148 − 3 z ) + z = 60
x =3
The solution of the system is (3, 2). Then solve for x.
x = 2 z − 88
Your Turn 2 Since both x and y must be nonnegative, we have:
Let x = number of shares of Kohl’s stock
148
3z ≤ 148 or z ≤ , so z ≤ 49
y = number of shares of Best Buy stock 3
x + y = 188 (1) 2 z ≥ 88 or z ≥ 44
52 x + 27 y = 8601 (2)
The largest number of spoons is thus 49 ; the
x + y = 188 corresponding number of knives is (2)(49) − 88 = 10 ,
R 2 + (-52) R1  R 2 - 25 y = -1175 and the number of forks is 148 − (3)(49) = 1.
y=7
x + y = 188
